What is Engineering?

Engineering is a career that involves the use of mathematics and the natural sciences to the best possible conversion of resources for the benefit of humans. OR, engineering is the practical application of scientific knowledge based on the natural and mathematics sciences.


What is Chemical Engineering?

Chemical engineering is the art of using engineering principles, physical and chemical laws, and available raw materials to make desired products in the most efficient ways possible to get the best outcomes. Or, it might be the area of engineering that deals with the planning and building of chemical plants that use chemical reactions to produce valuable goods or solve real-world issues.

What Chemical Engineer Do?

 Some chemical engineers develop innovative designs and procedures. Some people build equipment and infrastructure. Some people design and manage facilities. Atomic science, polymers, paper, colours, pharmaceuticals, plastics, fertilizers, meals, petrochemicals, and pretty much everything else were developed with the aid of chemical engineers. They come up with methods for turning raw materials into finished goods and for transforming one material into another usable form. Processes can be improved by chemical engineers to be more economical, environmentally friendly, or effective.

Function of Chemical Engineering

Chemical engineering uses principles from physics, chemistry, mathematics, and basic science to build processes based on physical and chemical changes. The following are the areas where chemical engineering is used:

  • Research
  • Development 
  • Process design and development 
  • Pilot plot experiment
  • Process control
  • Plant operation

Research

The scientific method must be used in scientific study. In order to explain the nature and properties of the world, this investigation offers scientific data and theories.


Development 

The entire process of introducing a new product to the market is known as new product development (NPD) in engineering. The NPD process is divided into two concurrent steps: idea creation, product design, and detail engineering, and market research and marketing analysis.

Process Design and Development

Designing processes for desired physical and/or chemical transformations of materials is known as process design in chemical engineering. Chemical engineering is centred on process design, which can be used to construct new facilities or to modify or expand already-existing facilities. The design process begins conceptually and culminates in plans for fabrication and construction.

 

Pilot Plant Experiment

A pilot plant is a tiny industrial system that is used to gather data about the system's behaviour for use in bigger facility design.
Personnel for a full-scale plant can be trained at the pilot plant.
To lessen the risk involved with building big process plants, pilot plants are used.

Process Control

Process controls is a field that combines engineering and statistics to study the mechanisms for controlling processes. Several instances of managed procedures include:
Controlling how much steam is added to a heat exchanger's shell in order to regulate the temperature of a stream of flowing water.
Regulating the flow rates of the reactants to maintain a specific ratio of reactants to be added to a reactor.
Regulating the level of the liquid in a tank to prevent overflowing

Plant Operation

An industrial process facility that manufactures or processes chemicals, typically on a large scale, is referred to as a chemical plant operation. A chemical plant's main goal is to produce new wealth through the chemical or biological transformation and/or separation of materials.

Professional Field Within Chemical Engineering

-
Professional Field Within Chemical Engineering Chemical engineering is such a vast and complex field that one can not be expert in whole of the field. Chemical engineer can work in major fields within chemical engineering. These fields are;  Research Process  Development Process  Design And Evaluation  Plant Design  Construction  Production Supervision  Plant Technical Service  Product Sale  Research  Research means to introduce something new or to get knowledge and improvement on something well established. There are four basic types of researchers  Market research  Fundamental research  Exploratory research  Process research Market research   Before investing in any project a market research is first conducted to calculate which product in demand these days and out of them which are more profitable to manufacturer. Fundamental research  In this research a new theory is developed and tested experimen...

A Beginner's Guide to Fluid Mechanics

 A Beginner's Guide to Fluid Mechanics Fluid mechanics can be a confusing subject if you’re not familiar with how fluids move and interact with each other. If you’re learning about fluid mechanics and are looking for some of the basics, this guide will help you understand everything from Bernoulli’s Principle to the Van Der Waals equation so that you can use this information in your work or everyday life. We’ll even go over some useful tricks that can help you figure out what might happen to fluids in certain situations without having to solve equations! What is fluid mechanics? Fluid mechanics is the study of fluids at rest and in motion. It covers a variety of topics, such as fluid dynamics, thermal physics, aerodynamics, hydrodynamics and hydrostatics. Fluids cover anything from liquids like water or oil, gases like air or nitrous oxide to less common substances like plasma or liquid crystal. Much of the work done in fluid mechanics is for both engineering purposes and scientifi...

Mastering Solid-State Diffusion: Challenges and Solutions in Materials Engineering

-
 At this very moment, billions of atoms are engaged in an intricate dance within the solid materials around us. This microscopic movement, known as the diffusion of solids, powers everything from the strengthening of your smartphone's screen to the formation of ancient minerals deep within the Earth's crust. Despite occurring in seemingly rigid structures, solid-state diffusion represents one of nature's most remarkable processes, enabling materials to transform their properties without melting. This phenomenon has become the cornerstone of modern materials engineering, though its complexities continue to challenge scientists and engineers alike. ## Introduction to Diffusion in Solids In the realm of materials science, solid-state diffusion represents a fascinating phenomenon where atoms, ions, or molecules move within a solid material despite being constrained by a rigid crystalline or amorphous structure. This movement, driven by concentration gradients and temperature, o...
